"I think diversity will be one of the most important issues facing Canadian society in this century. -- Part of my research involves looking at single-resource communities and what characteristics allow one place to successfully transcend an economic collapse, while in other cases, the community dies. The key may lie in diversity, how open the community is to outside ideas and how diverse their access is to different kinds of capital, especially intellectual capital. It may be key to competing in an interconnected global marketplace." ~ Dr. Ann Dale
